 car top carrier September 16, 2008
We bought this to take my daughter too college. It freed up a lot of space in our van. We also used two bungee cords for our own sense of security. We didn't encounter any rain, so we can't speak to the waterproof feature. It served it's purpose for us.
 Doesn't fit all cars! September 10, 2008

Unfortunately, this car top carrier does not fit all cars as the manufacturer says it does. I struggled for close to two hours to try and get it to fit on the roof of my '08 Subaru Outback. It did not fit. And even if it did fit, I'm not sure I would trust it. The straps used to secure it to the roof rails didn't seem to want to hold the carrier securely.

We have a station wagon with roof rails. I was hoping I could attach this carrier without having to buy crossbars, but I couldn't find a way to anchor it to the rails without it sliding back. If you have rails with a "loop" or something to anchor to at the front, you might be OK. As it was, I bought some Yakima crossbars and the carrier worked perfectly with them. The bag has a zipper that goes halfway around the top (the back and the passenger side, so it's a little more difficult to load than it would be if it opened on three sides. However, it's quite spacious and feels very sturdy.
love it! August 28, 2008
am going to be driving from San Diego, CA to Seattle, WA in about a week and have purchased both this and Highland 20052 Superfit Bar Carrier for this trip to use on my '99 Toyota Corolla. This is my first purchase of a cargo bag for on top of your car.
Finally have both the bag and the rack so I decided to put it all on my car to make sure it all works before this trip. The bag was fairly big and I had to spread the bars across all the way, but I do think it will work.
Update: Completed 20 hour trip and it worked great! It didn't rain, so I can't say anything about whether or not it is waterproof but I am in love with it! My favorite part was that I didn't fill it all the way, but I was still able to use the straps to tie it down closer to the car since it is a loose shape. Also, safety pins are a must for tying down all the loose straps after tightening. Love it, and I will use it it again, and again. I would change it to give it 5 stars, but it wouldn't let me edit. No complaints!
 KarPack roof top carrier - Excellent August 27, 2008
We bought this specifically to take a trip from Pittsburgh to North Carolina in the Outer Banks. It worked admirably for us; It sprinkled a bit when we were travelling and there was no water incursion to the duffel bags that we'd packed. So we are very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone as a worthy product that is very reasonably priced.
